Abstract

We prove that Siegel modular forms of degree greater than one, integral weight and level N, with respect to a Dirichlet character \({\chi}\) of conductor \({\mathfrak f_\chi}\) are uniquely determined by their Fourier coefficients indexed by matrices whose contents run over all divisors of \({N/\mathfrak f_\chi}\). The cases of other major types of holomorphic modular forms are included.
